Step 6: OPERATING THE DEVICE
NOTE: If your trailer has built-in brakes, they must be disengaged prior to operation of
the Trailer Valet. Consult your trailer manufacturer’s manual/instructions on temporary
brake release. If this is not available to you, please contact Trailer Valet Customer
Support through phone or email for assistance.
1) When you’re getting ready to operate the device, make sure you have one hand
firmly gripped on the brake, and the other hand firmly gripped on the drill/driver.
2) Slowly lift the Steering Handle until the brake is disengaged and begin cranking. The
Steering Handle must be held up firmly at all times when moving the trailer.
NOTE: Hold the drill/driver firmly when engaging. The drill will have high initial torque if
the drill trigger is pulled rather than squeezed. Begin to move the trailer as slowly as you
are capable and carefully increase the power up to an appropriate speed when using the
Drill Attachment.
NOTE: It is important that you steer the device only when you are cranking and the
trailer is moving. Attempting to turn the Steering/Brake Handle at a dead stop will place
excessive stress on a single tire.
NOTE: When attempting to make sharp turns (E.G. 90° rotation) from a stationary
position, crank the Trailer Valet back and forth while turning until the unit is in the
desired position. Then, proceed to make the turn.
WARNING: DO NOT use the Trailer Valet on slopes and inclines exceeding a strict
maximum of 10 degrees on a paved/concrete surface. This rating is subject to factors
including, but not limited to, alternate surfaces, weight distribution, change in weight
capacity, and use on multi-axle trailers. DO NOT pull up or push down an incline. The
unit must always be on the lower end of any incline. If you have any questions
concerning the use of your Trailer Valet on a slope or incline, please contact us at (844)
846-9344 or email us at: support@trailervalet.com
NOTE: Use of power drill is inadvisable for movement upon any incline.
Step 7: REMOVING THE DEVICE
1) Remove the drill/drive handle.
2) Lower the jack until the Trailer Valet is above the ground.
3) To detach the Telescoping Arm, remove the Security Pins from the Jack Clamp and
the Base Bracket. The Jack Clamp can optionally be left secured to the jack for future
use.
4) Loosen the Locking Nut and release the latch on the coupler.
